Unión will look to turn things around this Friday at 2:30 p.m. when they visit Aldosivi at the José María Minella stadium for the sixth round of Zone A of the Clausura Tournament. The team led by Leonardo Madelón comes into the match reeling after two straight defeats (and three in the first five rounds), under pressure to pick up points and move past the negative results.
The outlook for the coach is extremely complicated because of a depleted squad. The most serious case is that of Lautaro Vargas, who is suffering from a ligament injury in his left knee; while final medical confirmation is still pending, his recovery is estimated to take between six and eight months.
Adding to this significant absence are Ignacio Malcorra, sidelined with a muscle tear, and Joaquín Mosqueira, who was also ruled out due to a ligament injury in his knee.
Given the physical issues, Madelón tested four changes to the starting lineup structure in recent training sessions:
With these changes, the probable Tatengue lineup for the match in Mar del Plata will be: Matías Mansilla; Juan De Dios Pintado, Maizon Rodríguez, Juan Pablo Ludueña, Lucas Ayala; Julián Palacios, Emilio Giaccone, Lucas Menossi, Mauro Luna Diale; Marcelo Estigarribia and Cristian Tarragona.
The match in La Feliz will be officiated by Bruno Amiconi and will represent a test of character for a Unión side in need of regaining confidence and recovering lost points.
